Powering the 2026 Jeep Gladiator is the proven 3.6-liter Pentastar V6, delivering 285 horsepower and 260 lb-ft of torque for confident performance on worksites or weekend excursions. When properly equipped, certain four-wheel-drive models can tow as much as 7,700 pounds and offer a maximum payload capacity of up to 1,720 pounds.

The Gladiator’s available 4x4 systems — including the standard Command-Trac part-time configuration — provide low-range capability ideal for climbing steep trails, navigating mud, or tackling snowy roads. Off-road-oriented trims further enhance durability with heavy-duty suspension components, skid plates, all-terrain tires, and reinforcements designed for rough environments.
